This week Dell is offering some awesome back to school deals on everything from laptops to desktop PCs and accessories, but the catch is that they’re only available for 72 hours.

One of the best deals going is for Dell's powerful ultraportable the XPS 13, which features top of the line specs in the form of an Intel i7-8565U processor, 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD storage. You can save a huge £520 in the sale, slashing the price down from £1,949 to £1,429.

Many other laptops, including the Inspiron 15 3000 , are 14% off with the code SAVE14 applied during purchase, in addition to £20 off across the range.

Autumn is for obvious reasons one of the best times to get a new laptop either for yourself or for a child/teenager going back to school or university. Sad as it is, summer is now officially over and with a return to full-time education comes the inevitable realisation that the laptop you/your child will be working on was hardly powerful enough when you first bought it many moons ago. Fortunately, Dell is hoping to help.

The Dell XPS 13 got an admirable four stars from us, with the brilliant display, ample battery life and placement of the webcam all impressing our reviewer. It was also recently announced that this month new editions of the laptop will begin to feature Intel’s new 10th generation Comet Lake processors, although don't expect to nab one of these ultra-modern chips in the current XPS 13 laptops.

If you’re after a desktop PC, the XPS 8930 is also included in the SAVE14 sale, and you can grab a great monitor like the Dell S2319H for 36% off. Similarly, there are great savings a lot of Dell accessories such as the Dell Premier Wireless Keyboard and Mouse for 40% off, and the Dell Power Companion for 37% off.

Don't delay: these offers only last 72 hours.
